G Herbo Discusses The Perils Of Being A Rapper And Thinks Back On PnB Rock’s Death

Rapper, G Herbo, claimed that it is “one of the most dangerous things in the world” to be a rapper during a DJ Whoo Kid interview about his next album. “I don’t see how people don’t understand that being a rapper is one of the most dangerous things in the world,” he said to Whoo Kid at the 6:30 mark of the recorded interview.

“Just being somebody like me, an influence. Like, 24/7… 24 hours a day you have to be something that the outside world think you are. At the end of the day, y’all really not realizing that n***as got whole personal lives. I got that from the streets, you can’t really let it take a toll on you.”
